Anthony Stubbs - The Fast Bowler | Pillars of performance, simplicity & authenticity
Show Notes

Our guest this week is Fast bowling coach Anthony Stubbs. Known as 'The Fast Bowler' on Instagram, Stubbzy has helped many cricketers improve on and off the field through his 4 pillars of technical, tactical, mental and physical skills.
He is one of the most holistic coaches I've seen in the cricket world and we connected over our shared philosophies of incorporating body, mind and spirit into performance coaching. Stubbzy is certainly a free spirit and that's what makes him so good to work with. This podcast is more of an informal chat where we hit record halfway through as we found the conversation we were having might useful for many cricketers and coaches alike. We definitely go on a few tangents, however, it ended up being one of those conversations that seemed to get better and better as we went on. 

I also talk a fair bit about my own journey and the reason why I started the Inside Edge Project in the first place. As always, if you think anyone might benefit from some of this content, please feel free to share it around. I hope you enjoy!
